Shopping for Fall 08

U.S.A. Texas

Published

Anyone else gone shopping or just checked things out yet?

I went and tried stuff on last week and think I have almost decided what I want but haven't found the ones yet.

I tried on Cheerokee cargo pants but they only had 3 pockets (not really cargo to me) and had a draw string waist. I would prefer more pockets (like 7) and elastic and a draw string. I can just see me walking down the hall and my pants falling down to my ankles...lol, talk about putting someone in shock.

I want a v-neck top for sure or I will be taking scissors to it. My only problem is deciding how many pockets and where they are....I want as many pockets as possible but I don't know if I want them at the front hem or not. (I heard they would make you feel weighted down)

I had thought I was going to get Dansko shoes but I tried on Spring Steps the other day and they were so comfy so I might switch to those but I haven't made a final decision on anything yet.

I want a Littman Cardiology III steth or a Master Cardio, just waiting for orientation to make sure there are not any restrictions or etc. Of course with a special color, still deciding and lots of personalization.

Anyone else been buying or just looking? What have you decided on getting or are thinking about getting?

The most comfy, favorite scrub pants I have tried to date are these Dickies:

They have the elastic in the back but drawstring in the front, which I love, plenty of pockets, and I am a pretty petite girl so the petite sizes actually fit me which is a rare find for me! Unfortanately they don't carry them in the color I need for school. I'm in Kingwood's program. Not sure if North Harris has different colors or not, but we have to wear teal pants and white scrub tops with the patch on the left arm. Best of luck to you in your first semester!

I LOVE those! They are stylish, lol. I wonder where I can go try them on locally...

I got mine from PRN medical supply off of 1960. The place looks questionable walking in and you really have to dig through the racks to find what you're looking for, but they have things sorted by brand so that makes it a bit easier!

Are they the same price? I'm 5'9" so I probably need to go in and try them on. I may have to get the ones for tall peeps. :)

Also, anyone have a good recommendation on a recorder?

Honestly I don't remember how much I paid for them, but I don't think it was too much. I'm pretty sure they were under $20.

Yes, North Harris has the same uniforms, so they are out for me too.
